Real Estate Activity Picks since the 1st of the Year

By
Real Estate Agent with Re/Max Town & Country

After seeing the slowest months in my real estate career for the months of November and December, things have really started moving since January 1st. In Fannin County 24 Properties have gone under contract and in Gilmer County 21, more than doubling from the month before. This may be due to some really great deals out there on property. Has anyone else noticed the increase in activity?

I am seeing quite a bit of this from around the Country...I think if the tax rebates go through they will even help the bottom of our markets.

Our call volume is up for sure. Most of my clients are smart enough to pre-qualify before they start shopping so that means my market is headed up a curve for sure. In fact I had three calls who found me on Active Rain in just one day - Friday (yesterday). Oh - I just noticed you're in Blue Ridge! I am handling two mountain developments up there and we're moving stuff. I'll have to get in touch with you this week and see what you have going - we've done quite a bit in Fannin over the last 8 years (we're one of the few lenders who do log cabins in rural settings)

I agree with the Tax Rebate helping the market, at least for the short term. Think we'll have to keep pushing forward for the next year or so but at least it shakes out the tree and the strong agents are left standing.
